To start out, what exactly is a forensic psychologist/criminal psychologist? Glad you asked!
Pretty much it is the intersection of the law and psychology. You know how "insane" is a legal term and "psychotic" is a psych term, a forensic psychologist would be able to really clarify that for us. You have now been awarded a degree that is only recognized in room 236, read more about it in a bio written by a forensic psychologist here: APA types of psychologists
So, what do we know about Elliot Rodger?
